I Like Trains

• Am

Am 
Sixteen miles from Arkadelphia 
E7 
Right near the Texas border 
E7 
Traffic was stopped at a railway crossing 
                  Am 
I took it to the shoulder 
  Am 
I stoked the kettle I put it to the metal 
  F 
I shook the gravel loose 
  E 
I missed the train but I was happy with 
  E7               Am 
A glimpse of the caboose 
 
 
Chorus: 
             Am 
Cause I like trains 
       E7 
I like fast trains 
       E7                               Am 
I like trains that call out through the rain 
       Am 
I like trains 
       F 
I like sad trains 
       E           E7           Am 
I like trains that whisper your name 
 
 
I was born on a Greyhound bus 
My momma was a diesel engine 
They tried to put me behind the wheel 
But I wouldn’t let them 
You should have seen the look in their eyes 
And how it turned to tears 
When I finally told them  
I wanna be an engineer 
 
 
Chorus 
 
 
Bridge: 
        F 
Now you think I’ve got someone new 
    G 
But darlin that ain’t true 
F                           E7 
I could never love another woman besides you 
 
 
It’s not some dewy-eyed darlin, darlin  
That’s gonna drive you insane 
But anymore I’d be listenin for 
The sound of a big ol’ train 
 
Chorus
